The per-cpu vsyscall pvclock data pointer assigns either an element of the
static array hv_clock_boot (#vCPU <= 64) or dynamically allocated memory
hvclock_mem (vCPU > 64), the dynamically memory will not be allocated if
kvmclock vsyscall is disabled, this can result in cpu hotpluged fails in
kvmclock_setup_percpu() which returns -ENOMEM. This patch fixes it by not
assigning vsyscall pvclock data pointer if kvmclock vdso_clock_mode is not
VDSO_CLOCKMODE_PVCLOCK.

I am sorry, I still cannot figure out this patch.

Is hotplug still broken if kvm vsyscall is enabled?
